ComradeMuralov:

ComradeKrzhizhanovsky is highly delighted withYesin,
worker and Communist, whom he says you know as well. Inthe words of Krzhizhanovsky this is an outstanding worker,
an electrician, and extremely useful (turned out to be
useful in the work of the State Commission for the
Electrification of Russia). So Krzhizhanovsky strongly recommends
him for membership of theGeneral Planning Commission
of the Council of Labour and Defence.

Ithink this Commission should, as a general rule,
consist ofspecialists, aworker, by way of exception.

Ihave told Osinsky as much and should like to know
your opinion. I earnestly request you to send me (with the
same messenger), in a few lines, your detailed opinion of
Yesin, his record, his efficiency,
etc.[1]
